Headset Control  by  Faheem PervezMultimedia category

Daemon allowing control of Media Player with the wired headset buttons.

This daemon will send pause/play signals to MAFW depending on its current state when the button on the wired headset is pressed.

Set the GConf key /apps/headset-control/next-mode to true if you would prefer it to send a "next track" signal instead.

Working great with original N900 headset on PR1.3 Power kernel. Follow the instruction of "zyborg" in this thread if you want to use as the next button. [Rate: 10/10]

@Anonymous: no, this daemon only supports *WIRED* headsets with remote control. I am not aware of any similar tool for Bluetooth headsets without music control buttons. [No rate]

Does it work with Bluetooth headset (standard, without music control buttons)? If not, is there any app/daemon which does that? [Rate: 8/10]

doesn't work right away and sometimes stops working just like that; I then have to restart the media player, but all in all still a very useful app thanks a lot! [Rate: 8/10]

Reply to Anonymous: Enter this command in X Terminal: gconftool-2 --set /apps/headset-control/next-mode --type bool true (you may have to type 'sudo gainrootm first to gain root access). That should do it. [No rate]

Sorry, but I'm not very familiar with linux so that "Set the GConf key /apps/headset-control/next-mode to true" doesn't mean anything to me. And I couldn't find any info on the internet about how to get where I can change the mode. Can anybody tell me where this "GConf key" or what ever is hidden and how I can activate the "next track" signal? Thx in advance [No rate]
